I have similar probs albeit not that often and I've noted that it only happens (mostly) when I'm driving down a hill and touch the brakes whilst doing around 60 - 70kmph. Note: I only have a 3.0i, not a V8 as I thought this was only a V8 problem, not so. We have a lot of sneeky radar cop cars on the GC that park within other local cars and catch you as you come down these steep roads.
Ol' Bluey throws it down a gear the moment I just touch/tap the brakes as if to prepare to either slow down, overtake or come to a stop, weird.
I've come to understand the car and try not to run up and down said hilly road over the speed limit (usually 60kmph).
Strange how it doesn't happen if i'm running down these hilly roads at speed or under 50kmph.
As amacman said, carry on. Very interesting read.....
